During a Package Review I was doing on a python package, Kevin Kofler joined the conversation to point out that was wrong to suggest that the python packages should remove the egg-info provided by upstream. I was a little surprised by this so I started to look around and I found a wiki page (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python_Eggs) confirming that this is an old policy that is now deprecated. Believing not to be the only packager that is used to delete the upstream egg-info folder, I scanned Fedora RPM specs and this is what I found: 459 packages do it. Since in the wiki page it's specified that this behavior is deprecated, I think all packagers having packages that delete egg-info files should improve their packages. This is the complete list of packages doing so. ahc-tools ahkab ansible-inventory-grapher ansible-lint autotest-framework awscli boom bugwarrior carbonate dap2rpm datanommer-commands devassistant
